Welcome to unit 7A at the LHaus, one of the most sought-after full service condo development in Long Island City.
Outdoor living at its best: 7A is a very unique apartment, nestled on a floor that, unlike the rest of the building, boasts big size apartments with private terraces. This unit is the only one offering two expansive terraces: one, just off the living area, features direct city views and a northern exposure. The other is a much wider one, with triple open exposure (north, east and south) and enough space to entertain a full party, Sundays BBQs or simply some sun tanning.
Moving indoor, you are welcomed by a rare livable space, measuring 1,338sf, featuring a huge living room and separate dining room, with north and east exposure. 9.2 foot ceilings and large triple-pane windows offer great sunlight and quietness across the entire apartment.
The two bedrooms (one of which with a roomy walk-in closet) can easily fit a kind size bed, additional furniture or an office corner. The master bedroom offers ultimate quietness and privacy, by not sharing walls with any other unit.
The kitchen is fitted with high-end Bosch, Blumberg and Sharp appliances, quartz countertop and high-gloss custom cabinets, soft close drawers, custom stainless steel backsplash, a drawer microwave, a wide island, and a large window with eastern exposure.
The two bathrooms come with Kholer fixtures: the master has a floating vanity with limestone counter, a tiled shower cabin, a ceiling room heather and a dedicated window. The second has a deep soaking tub with bright gloss wall tiles. Both conveniently feature upgraded Toto wash lets.
Generous closet space, recently upgraded a/c units and washer and dryer, and wide plank white oak flooring complete the offer.
This unit can easily be converted to a 3 bedroom (with board approval), making it one of the biggest 3 bedroom with terraces available in Long Island City at this price point.
Amenities include 24-hr concierge, package room, cold storage, on-site resident super, a 1,700sf Fitness Center with yoga room and views overlooking an outdoor 10,000sf landscaped outdoor area, bar and grill called The Yard, a 1,475sf club room, a large kids playroom, 2 roof top terraces with NYC views (ideal for 4th of July fireworks), garage parking, and bike storage. The L Haus was completed in 2010, is comprised of 122-units, and has a 15-year tax abatement expiring in 2025.

Quick Profile
Long Island City, the name does sound a little far away, like it requires a lengthy drive to get to. Think, again. Long Island City, also known as LIC, is nestled in the western corner of Queens along the East River. Midtown Manhattan is closer to Long Island City than it is to downtown Manhattan.
LIC is bordered by Sunnyside to the east, the East River to the west, Astoria to the north, and Newton Creek which separates Queens from Greenpoint Brooklyn to the south.
A once-shabby manufacturing epicenter, the neighborhood is a mix of industrial, commercial and residential. In recent years it’s seen a rise in some seriously cool factors. Populated by young professionals, multi-ethnic immigrants, and hipsters, LIC has a happening nightlife scene, fantastic restaurants (some of them Michelin starred), art museums and galleries. Much of the waterfront access has been redeveloped into sustainable public green spaces with modern design.
Although much of the industrial / manufacturing companies have since left LIC, many still reside there. They tend to co-exist with new residential building development the same way they do in other neighborhoods like Williamsburg and Greenpoint.
Office building developers and business tenants play a vital role in LIC too. It’s considered New York City’s fourth central business district next to Midtown, downtown Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn.
As you traverse the streets of LIC, you’ll notice the change from block to block. Industrial warehouses on one block, a bustling Main Street, followed by a park block with sleek luxury high-rise buildings. It’s all part of the LIC vibe.
For a small neighborhood, the transportation links are excellent. For starters, you just can’t beat living one subway stop from Manhattan (7 train). Other train lines include E, M, R, N, Q, and the G lines. There are also less conventional methods of transportation like the NYC Ferry, which offers three ferry landings. There is no shortage of CitiBike’s in LIC either. Many folks commute to work by way of cycling over the Queensboro Bridge.
